Charlemagne with Bishops, Charlemagne Window, Chartres, France

Panel 2 of the Charlemagne Window, Chartres Cathedral, Chartres, France. Charlemagne sits between two bishops. The one on the right holds a book and likely represents an emissary from Constantine, telling him about the vision in panel 3. The one on the left may be from Charlemagne's court and is possibly Archbishop Turpin of Reims.
